It was impossible to sleep on the plane this time. Not only did I have to keep my eyes on Fionna the hard time, she wouldn’t let go of my wrist. Seriously, from the moment we picked her up until we got on the second plane headed from Chicago to Paris, the only time she let go of my wrist was to walk through the metal detector at security, and even then, it took a lot of coxing to get her to do it without setting anything on fire or electrocuting anyone. It was the most nerve wracking thing I think I’ve ever done, and that’s saying something. The whole time we were working our way through the TSA line, I thought for sure she was going to light someone on fire, and then the entire mage world would be exposed.
Nuthatch and I had one job--to keep her from letting the rest of the world know we existed. It sounded easy, but it wasn’t, not with someone like Fionna. I really w

Mage of Wolves Letting Go
I’ve been exhausted before. In fact, I had landed myself in the hospital just a few days before this trip to Paris for being exhausted, more or less. But by the time we got into the car to head to the School for Mages, my eyes would hardly stay open. My mind was so foggy, I couldn’t calculate just how many hours I’d been awake or what time it was in Montana. All I knew for certain was that I wanted to deliver Fionna and head back to the airport.I found out on the ride, though, that I wouldn’t be doing that. Not exactly.Nuthatch was sitting in the front seat by the driver, Fionna and I in the back seat. She had her death grip on me as her eyes stared out the window at all of the new sights. I knew she was scared, and I didn’t blame her. She’d just been delivered to another country where she knew absolutely no one, save Nutha
Mage of Wolves Bumps and Screams
I had just collided head first with a solid wall of muscle. My forehead actually smarted a little. I wanted to reach up and rub it, but I didn’t. Instead, I just took a few steps backward as the moving wall said, “I’m so sorry! Are you all right?” in a British accent.“Yeah, I’m fine. Are you?” As if my head could’ve put a dent in that muscular chest.“I’m fine,” he assured me. “Pardon me, miss. I should’ve been looking out better.”“Me, too,” I said, but I was confused. Why was he calling me miss. Did he not recognize me? “It’s all right, Liam,” I said. “I wasn’t looking either.”A puzzled expression came over his handsome face, and then it
Mage of Wolves Latching Off
I should have probably ran toward the sound of Fionna screaming, but I didn’t. I walked. Calmly. Out in the hallway, the scent of smoke was stronger than it had been in my room, but I couldn’t see it. Nor did I see anyone else running or hear anyone else screaming or shouting. It was all very different than the scene at the high school had been. I was hopeful that it was the fact that Fionna should’ve been surrounded by mages here that was keeping her from hurting anyone.It took me a while to figure out where the sound was coming from. She was in the building next to the one where I was staying. I thought this was one that was for teachers only, but I couldn’t remember specifically. When I walked inside, it looked nicer than the building I’d been staying in, confirming my suspicion that this was a fancier building for “grown ups.”
Mage of Wolves Cafe Characters
A few hours later, I awoke to a knocking on my door. I wanted to ignore it. I was still so tired from the long trip, but when I heard someone saying my name on the other side of the door, I knew I had to open it.I brushed my fingers through my hair in an attempt to straighten it and yawned on my way to the door, hoping to get it out of my system before I pulled it open, but when I opened the door and saw Kayla standing there, her smile faded slightly. “Did I wake you?” she asked.“It’s okay,” I said, trying to mean it. I really was happy to see her. “How are you?”“I’m good, thanks. How are you?” she asked, that excited smile back. I could tell she was actually happy to see me, which was cool because I was kind of happy
Mage of Wolves Awkward Walk
“How was your flight this time?” Liam asked me as we walked back to my room. It seemed like we were strolling, like he wasn’t in any hurry at all to get me to my room so that he could rush back to his friends who might be waiting for him. I tried not to read anything into it and didn’t hurry either, even though I sort of wanted to dash into my room and hide from this attractive guy who may or may not have been the fellow my boyfriend saw me enjoying a picnic lunch with during his death vision.“The flight wasn’t good,” I said. Now that it was just Liam and I, I figured I could be a little more open about the situation with Fionna than I was in front of the entire group. “Fionna takes a lot of energy.”Liam gave me a sympathetic look. “I’m sorry. It sounds like she’s really taken a liking to
Mage of Wolves In Your Dreams
I must have stared at Liam for a full thirty seconds before I finally got my mouth to work well enough to ask him what the hell he was talking about. That’s not what I said, though, when my tongue finally loosened from the roof of my mouth. “Wh-what?” was all I managed to get out. “You… saw me in your dreams?”I could tell he was wishing he hadn’t said anything at all by the way his face was continuing to grow more and more red by the second. He ran a hand through his blond hair, making it ripple as it stood and fell and then stood up again. “Yeah,” he murmured. “It’s weird… Harlow. I’ve been seeing you in my dreams for years. Not just since I met you. It started about five years ago. I don’t dream about you every night, but I did often enough that, when I first saw you, here, I was taken aback. Even hearing your name, wh
Mage of Wolves Flying with a Friend
“Okay--you’ve got to tell me, what in the world is wrong with that girl?”I tried to stifle a laugh, but it was hard. Maggie’s face was priceless as she sat next to me in first class, flying with me back to Chicago. I insisted that she didn’t need to make the last leg to Montana, but I was glad it was her flying with me across the Atlantic. While it was super hard for her to unlatch Fionna from her, the flights had already been arranged before Fionna decided Maggie was her new security blanket. We were both leery of how Fionna might react not having Maggie there, or me, but the best part about the situation for us was that neither one of us would have to deal with the aftermath. I was a little afraid she might burn the school to the ground, but Maggie had left her in the care of Mage Jaye herself, so at least it would be the head of the council who would be responsible to make
Mage of Wolves Unless...
I didn’t know what it was about my expression that let Maggie know there was something else I wanted to talk to her about, but I was glad she’d asked because I otherwise might never have had the courage to bring it up. Perhaps it was part of her own personal brand of magic.Even with her asking me what I wanted to talk to her about, it was difficult to get the words to start coming out of my mouth. After all, we were talking about a guy I hardly knew who had been having dreams about me for years. None of it made any sense to me. Hence, the reason for me bringing it up to Maggie to begin with. Still, that didn’t make getting my mouth working appropriately any easier.“Well,” I began, choosing my words carefully. “I spoke to Liam yesterday, and he said something to me that I found… interesting. You can’t repeat any
